grrrrrrrr Ok that didnt work either. Moved it again to the

Hello,
I am trying to test that php is working properly with apache and
with mysql and I keep getting the following error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysqli_connect() in C:
\Apache2.2\htdocs\mysql_up.php on line 13
Now I have done absolutely everything that I have read in all of
these forums and it still is not working. Below is a list of all
that I have done so far:
1. Addded PHP to the windows path by going to "Advanced System
Settings" and adding C:/php to the path.
2. The php.ini file is currently located at c:/php/php.ini
3. I have tried moving the php.ini file to the windows folder
of my computer that didnt work.
4. I have removed the restrictive comment from the extension
php_mysqli.dll
5. I have re started apache several times.
6. Php in itself does seem to be working because I did create a
test php page and below is what shows up on that page. From what I
have read the fact that the loadedconfiguration file section is
blank means that my computer is not able to locate the php.ini file
but i honestly have no clue where else to put it because i've tried
copying it everywhere to no avail.
Please help if you can. Below is what I got from a test page when
i tested php alone on apache...however when i try to test if all
three are working i get the above error.

It went poof. It was actually stored in your account and only
appeared to
be in c:\windows. NOW put a php.ini in there.
This looks like a good vista walk-through for you.

Hint, read the comments if you have problems.
Dude, old timer here trying to help out. You need to put things in
place to capture errors so you know where the problem is.
http://us.php.net/mysqli_connect
$cxn = mysqli_connect($host,$user,$password);
Followed by:
if (!$cxn) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
and do this every time you make a db query.
And consider using a db class. I personally use pear because it's
quick and consistantly deployable.
Look at:
http://pear.php.net/package/MDB2/
others will have their favorite class abstraction's but in the long
run it doesn't matter that much but having error trapping is going to
become important to you if you want to access db's.
Your current problem may be apache conf but without stopping on php
code problems you won't know that it's not something php or mysql is
halting on. And assuming your in dev turn php error_reporting to E_ALL.
Your on your way and good luck.
